HDDSR 605: SMART REMINDER TECHNOLOGY
The same technology used on the Shaw Direct HDPVR to automatically record and manage all
your favourite programs is also available on the HDDSR to “remind” you whenever certain
programs are airing. When a program you’ve set a reminder for is about to start, you’ll see a
“
warning sign
” in the top right corner of the screen. Just press
ENTER
and you’ll see a list of all
upcoming “reminded” programs, all in one convenient menu!
4A. SETTING REMINDERS
Reminders are always set from the Program Options menu. As described earlier, you can access
this menu from the Guide, Search Results, Info Pages, or Upcoming Air Dates screen.
Reminders always apply to the currently selected channel only. You can set
multiple reminders for the same program to cover more channels if needed.
From within the
Program Options menu
, the following selections will set a Reminder:
•
SET A REMINDER FOR NEW EPISODES:
Each time a
first-run
episode of the selected program
airs on the selected channel, you will receive a reminder. This is a recurring reminder.
•
SET A REMINDER FOR ALL EPISODES:
Each time
any
episode of the selected program airs on
the selected channel, you will receive a reminder. This is a recurring reminder.
•
SET A REMINDER FOR THIS PROGRAM:
When this
specific
episode or movie airs, you will
receive a reminder. To set a reminder for a future airing of the program or movie, use the
“View upcoming air dates” option to select the episode or airing you wish to set a
reminder for. This is a one-time reminder.
You can set as many overlapping reminders as you want. “Reminded” programs are
indicated with a black bell symbol.
